Izikelemu zomzimba

I-ringworm ukutheleleka kwesikhumba okubangelwa isikhunta. Kubizwa nangokuthi i-tinea.

Izifo zesikhunta ezihlobene zesikhumba zingavela:

• Esikhunjeni
• Entshebeni yendoda
• Emgodini (jock itch)
• Phakathi kwezinzwani (unyawo lomsubathi)

Isikhunta ngamagciwane angaphila ezicutshini ezifile zezinwele, izipikili nezingqimba zesikhumba esingaphandle. Umbandamu womzimba ubangelwa isikhunta esifana nesikhunta esibizwa ngama-dermatophytes.

Izikelemu zomzimba zivamile ezinganeni, kodwa zingenzeka kubantu bayo yonke iminyaka.

Isikhunta siyachuma ezindaweni ezifudumele, ezinomswakama. Ukutheleleka kwesibungu kungenzeka kakhulu uma:

• Yiba nesikhumba esimanzi isikhathi eside (njengokujuluka)
• Yiba nokulimala okuncane kwesikhumba nezipikili
• Ungagezi noma ugeze izinwele zakho kaningi
• Yiba nokuxhumana okuseduze nabanye abantu (njengakwezemidlalo efana ne-wrestling)

I-ringworm ingasakazeka kalula. Ungayibamba uma uhlangana ngqo nendawo yesibungu emzimbeni womuntu. Ungayithola nangokuthinta izinto ezinesikhunta kuzo, njenge:

• Izembatho
• Ama-Combs
• Indawo echibini
• Shower phansi nezindonga

I-ringworm nayo ingasakazwa yizilwane ezifuywayo. Amakati yizithwali ezivamile.

Ukuqhuma kuqala njengendawo encane enamabala abomvu, aphakanyisiwe nezinduna. Ukuqhuma kancane kancane kuba okwendandatho, ngomngcele obomvu, ophakanyisiwe kanye nendawo ecacile. Umngcele ungabonakala ubukhali.

Ukuqhuma kungenzeka ezingalweni, emilenzeni, ebusweni, noma kwezinye izindawo zomzimba eziveziwe.

Indawo ingahle ilume.

Umhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwempilo uvame ukuxilonga umbandamu ngokubheka isikhumba sakho.

Ungadinga nokuhlolwa okulandelayo:

• Ukuhlolwa kwesikhumba kusuka ekuqubukeni ngaphansi kwesibonakhulu kusetshenziswa isivivinyo esikhethekile
• Isiko lesikhumba sefungus
• Isikhumba biopsy

Gcina isikhumba sakho sihlanzekile futhi somile.

Sebenzisa okhilimu abelapha izifo zokukhunta.

• Okhilimu abaqukethe i-miconazole, i-clotrimazole, i-ketoconazole, i-terbinafine, noma i-oxiconazole, noma eminye imishanguzo evimbela ukuvuvukala ivame ukusebenza ngempumelelo ekulawuleni izikelemu.
• Ungathenga amanye alawa okhilimu ngaphezu kwekhawunta, noma umhlinzeki wakho angakunika incwadi kadokotela.

Ukuze usebenzise lo muthi:

• Geza bese uyomisa indawo kuqala.
• Faka ukhilimu, uqale ngaphandle nje kwendawo yokuqubuka bese uhambela enkabeni. Qiniseka ukuthi ugeza futhi womise izandla zakho ngemuva kwalokho.
• Sebenzisa ukhilimu kabili ngosuku izinsuku eziyi-7 kuya kwezingu-10.
• Ungasebenzisi ibhandishi phezu kwesibungu.

Umhlinzeki wakho angakunikeza umuthi ozowuthatha ngomlomo uma ukutheleleka kwakho kubi kakhulu.

Ingane enesibungu ingabuyela esikoleni uma sekuqale ukwelashwa.

Ukuvimbela ukutheleleka ekusakazekeni:

• Geza izingubo, amathawula nokulala emanzini ashisayo, anensipho bese ukuwomisa usebenzisa ukushisa okushisayo njengoba kunconyiwe kulebula lokunakekelwa.
• Sebenzisa ithawula elisha nendwangu yokuwasha njalo lapho ugeza.
• Hlanza amasinki, obhavu, namakamelo okugezela kahle ngemva kokuwasebenzisa ngakunye.
• Gqoka izingubo ezihlanzekile nsuku zonke futhi ungahlanganyeli nezingubo.
• Uma udlala imidlalo yokuxhumana, geza khona lapho ngemuva kwalokho.

Izilwane ezifuywayo ezinegciwane kufanele nazo ziphathwe. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi umbandamu ungasakazeka usuke ezilwaneni uye kubantu ngokuxhumana.

I-Ringworm ivame ukuhamba kungakapheli amasonto ama-4 lapho usebenzisa okhilimu obulalayo. Ukutheleleka kungasabalala kuye ezinyaweni, ekhanda, emgodini, noma ezinzipho.

Izinkinga ezimbili zesibungu yi:

• Ukutheleleka kwesikhumba ekuklwebheni kakhulu
• Ezinye izifo zesikhumba ezidinga ukwelashwa okwengeziwe

Shayela umhlinzeki wakho uma umbandamu ungaphili ngokuzinakekela.
